Vista v XP

Post by mollycat »

Hi

I currently use xp and have no problem with it and run variuos Karaoke software from it, however I am looking to buy a new laptop and they all come with Vista Business installed (my choice is limited I live on one of the Greek Islands). So if I change will Vista be ok with softare such as KJ Pro, Karawin,Sax n Dotty etc.

Thanks

The program I use works fine with vista basic. I use Just Karaoke from tricerasoft. I switched from a winamp based software due to issues that have been reported between winamp based karaoke softwares and vista. Although some have reported no issues with the same software. For my business It is better not to take the chance.

I Run Vista as well with swift elite and am having problems on a so so basis. although swift elite works today, tommorow it might not and i have to install again. Now I Keep a copy of the install on my desktop so i can easily access it if this problem occurs again. another program i use is called better file renamer and this does NOT work with Vista at all. I miss being able to use it on my laptop but I keep all my files on a external harddrive So i just reconnect it to my stationary and do what work i have to do with it.
